This Fifth Sun – the Nahui-Ollin

This divinatory day – 9 Éhecatl

This ixtlahuatl – eye the four cardinal points

This rounded temple – to resist not your paths

These stone walls – surrounded by winds

These human bones – preserved for the next age

These maguey plants – from Mayáhuel's planted bones

These five glyphs – cyclical eschaton

Reverence at the crest of this circular temple

Searching the winds for tetzahuitl

Adorned and masked for veneration

Monitoring Éhecatl's four directions

Remembrance of an age destroyed by wind

Overseeing calendrical divination

Altar offerings for the wind and the sky

Reciprocating Éhecatl's blood sacrifice

Adherence to this aspect of Quetzalcoatl

Trumpeting the conch as cuicayotl

Conical cap sits upon brow

Watching Éhecatl's breath move Tlaloc's clouds

This duckbill mask – to represent the aspect

This conch spiral – for the buzzing of creation

This atlatl – demonstrating strength

This penile blood – to emulate our conception

This temple in circular form

Devised for air to surround us all

May your form reveal crucial omens

Perpetuate Nanahuatzin

Carry Tecuciztécatl

Éhecatl-Quetzalcoatl
